1930s Warhammer was WEIRD

a good reminder most people who actually know trans people have no problem with us and the entire genocidal movement is astroturfed by a handful of billionaires and has nowhere near the amount of people behind it that you’d think it does from its cultural footprint

It's canon

I made a tiny game for PicoSteveMo with @dicey.bsky.social ! ➡️ It's called King Stephen ➡️ You play as King Stephen (King of England 1135-1154) ➡️ It's a Reigns-like decision-making game ➡️ I did the writing + portraits ➡️ Made for a Stephen King game jam ➡️ It's very silly dicey.itch.io/king-stephen

(Bonus inclusion that doesn’t really count because all I’ve contributed to this game is recording a few lines of dialogue, BUT, people should wishlist it) TR-49 It’s an Inkle narrative game so it’s going to be good. Wishlist! store.steampowered.com/app/3838370/...

Thousand Hells: The Underworld Heists Surrealist tactical narrative game. Build a team & venture in the underworlds Developed by A Sharp (King of Dragon Pass & Six Ages), published by Kitfox. A lot of amazing writers working on this one Wishlist it! store.steampowered.com/app/3794210/...

Amberspire A brilliant and beautiful science fantasy dice city builder created by @nictringali.bsky.social Wishlist it! store.steampowered.com/app/3350750/...

I should probably shout more about the games I’ve worked on/I’m working on that have been announced and can be wishlisted…

Going to shamelessly use this to remind people that if you’d like a historian who is also a writer and narrative designer to bring some of these perspectives to your game, then in the new year I’m available for work

In 2012, a Conservative government awarded April Ashley, a trans woman, an MBE for "services to trans equality". How far are we from a Labour government revoking that award, because trans people don't deserve equality?

So um. We stopped at Tebay services on Monday. They can’t know what this means, right?

Putting my money where my mouth is and joined the Green Party, nice to feel like there’s an at least half decent option in British politics. Not getting my hopes up because stupid island will be stupid but can’t hurt to try!

Sticker packs Each one features four designs. The sea slugs have been VERY popular, so grab them before I run out! xx

Creature mini prints! Available individually, or buy the lot and get a wee discount 😘

Unfinished Zine Oh! Shit! This one isn’t done yet! You’ll need to get drawing and help me get it completed 🤦

Inkblot Forest An illustrated choose-your-own-path book where you must find your way out of a haunted forest, lest you become one of its tortured denizens…

Sad Manthology An anthology featuring myself @elljwalker.bsky.social @toadlett.bsky.social and @tsundernova.bsky.social of sad wet men living sad wet lives. You may cry forever upon reading

It’s #thoughtbubble in less than a week! Time for a thread of the goodies I’ll have on sale 🥰 Starting off strong with ‘I Cannot Stop Photographing Birds’ a silly zine made up in the style of newspaper articles using bird photographs I’ve taken over the years

Yes and yet several European countries are embracing a far-right worldview that would burn these policies to the ground, so let’s be not be smug or complacent here - particularly as Mamdani‘s pro-immigration stance is radical by European standards.

And if you’re like “I’m a game dev & I don’t see how a narrative person who is also a historian is helpful for me and my non-historical game” Then you can read my design diary about some of the work I’ve done for Amberspire (which has a fantasy sci-fi setting) lunardivision.net/micro-and-ma...

Reminder that from the beginning of next year I’m available for work! Writing, narrative design, historical & narrative consultancy, research, teaching. I’m particularly fond of applying historical approaches to worldbuilding & storytelling in interactive mediums

Nan mais y'a un moment quand on charge avec des T'au aussi faut pas s'étonner du résultat

*To sum up: when journalists are allowed to do their jobs, the far-right loses. When billionaires and Tim Davie call the shots, the far-right wins.

Reform very unhappy with the coverage they got from Welsh media. The message is clear: the far-right can only succeed when they enjoy the fawning treatment that English media provide.

i want to know what happens in magic the gathering that makes powerful babies grow up into draft chaff. 🤔

I just warn my firends in the UK that as repulsive as youth wearing the aged garments of fascism is to you, the billionaires know it's their only way to succeed and will spend infinite money to make it happen. How we got Kirk and Turning Point after years of them being clowned in the Obama era.

We can not stress the importance of resisting this. Share and sign this petition: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

Reminder: THE INTERNET IS A PALANTIR. DO NOT BE DENETHOR.

For 56 minutes Sky News and BBC News interrupted everything else and carried a Reform UK feed live, uninterrupted, unchallenged. The stream spluttered, froze, pixelated - dozens of times - still they stuck with it. FOR ONE HOUR. This is an editorial choice. No other party gets this coverage. ~AA

💯. Progressives have to stop franchising out their consciences to the courts. Politics is about moral choices. The problem with Reform's proposal isn't that "the courts won't allow it". It's that it's grotesque and inhuman. If we're democrats, we must believe that this argument can be won.

Labour going to keep pushing harder and harder right huh, like all those other centrist governments around the world?

One thing I'll say about DC not only canceling Red Hood, but recalling the first issue and refunding stores for buying it, is that you can still get Neil Gaiman's work through them. They still work with Otto Schmidt. Eddie Berganza worked there for years AFTER the formation of a policy that no women

Silliest way to do a cover reveal. Hopefully launching Worms volume 2 at thought bubble

For those who have built the Cathay Jade Warriors (With halberds) Is it possible to angle the weapons to be pointed forward or are they fairly rigidly built to rank up with weapons pointed skyward? #warhammercommunity #ageofsigmar

Lovely big Star Wars Legion order from @tychosgames.bsky.social! Even came with a great free gift ☺️ Highly recommend Tycho Games, great prices and great customer service

starmer is doing all the anti-immigrant and anti-trans "popularism" stuff the centrists are demanding US dems do and this is the predictable result:

When centrists adopt far-right rhetoric, they don’t make themselves stronger. They make themselves look inauthentic, legitimise the far right, and shift the political debate onto terrain defined by their opponents. www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

Whenever stuff like this bubbles up, I'm always reminded of the campaign waged in the early 90s by the red top newspapers against the rise of Media Studies as an academic discipline. "Mickey Mouse degrees" etc. The idea of a population with media literacy threatened their entire business model.

If you’ve been curious about what I mean when I talk about using history in “non-historical” games, then this design diary I wrote about Amberspire will give some insights. It’s about finding inspiration in the tension and meeting of micro and macro history lunardivision.net/micro-and-ma...

A concrete thing every UK person who cares about trans rights can do right now: 1. Email a link of this report to your MP, with highlights from the executive summary in your email. Ask them what it means for your constituency and their party - highlight trans people's legally mandated human rights

Saw someone upbraiding someone else for having a hobby while the world is on fire, and, my friends: 1. The world is ever on fire, this is today's conflagration; 2. If you don't find time for rest and joy the fire will consume you; 3. Don't let people shame you for being an entire human.
